BatMobile Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Anglesey I would love to do but it’s just too far given I have two kids. anyone bought these: https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Enamel-Chrome-and-Black-LOTUS-NOSE-BADGE-Elise-Exige-7-Jim-Clark/123146147099?hash=item1cac15151b:g:XGcAAOxyXWdQ6qoI are they the right ones for the v6?

550superfast Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Anyone ever thought about running a 16 inch wheel at the front with a very wide tyre? Quote https://www.youtube.com/user/400superamerica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arun_D Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Would that clear the caliper? I know moving to a 343mm disc (modest increase of 11mm on diameter over standard) means you have to be more careful with balance weight position.

TheKevlarKid Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Why would you want to do that? So little choice of tyre in 16, 17 by far the more popular size and tyre availability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if Avon ever made the ZZR 245/45/16. 1 hour ago, Arun_D said: Would that clear the caliper?

BatMobile Posted August 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Hey guys, any recommendations on tracks commutable from Guildford, Surrey. I have done goodwood and Silverstone. brands is the obvious one I am missing, should I start with the Indy track given people saying lots of race cars will be on the gp circuit days? any other circuits I should be considering - don’t want to stay away but happy to drive 2 hours to get there. want to get a September date in to the diary.

W31SSN Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Rockingham is just under 2 hours from Weybridge so wouldn’t be too much longer for you. Good track, not to everyone’s taste but it’s great for improving technical driving. It’s pretty cheap too! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cads Posted August 9, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Hi guys - I didnt get chance to post in advance, but I have managed to do my first track day! So thanks to you all for you're advice earlier in the year - however I am well and truly blaming you all for getting me hooked!! 😂 I had an awesome day with @david_pittard at Bedford on Monday, I can't recommend him enough. I feel like I learnt so much in one day that I definitely need to book a second session (unless I put you off a second session @david_pittard by trimming the grass with my front splitter 🤣). There was also a great photographer at the track so I managed to bag some great images.... I've posted a few below! 😃 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin67 Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 Welcome to the club. Many of us have used @david_pittard and he never disappoints. Looks like your going to be a regular attendee at track days now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
